Huh?!?
NASA has hundreds, maybe thousands, of hours of archival quality color 16 mm film available to watch for free, it has been digitized and much of it on YouTube (ask me how I know) and in HD format, basically.

"...NASA admitted in 2006 that no one could find the original video recordings of the July 20, 1969, landing.
Since then, Richard Nafzger, an engineer at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, who oversaw television processing at the ground-tracking sites during the Apollo 11 mission, has been looking for them.
The good news is he found where they went. The bad news is they were part of a batch of 200,000 tapes that were degaussed — magnetically erased — and re-used to save money.
“The goal was live TV,” Nafzger told a news conference.
“We should have had a historian running around saying ‘I don’t care if you are ever going to use them — we are going to keep them’,” he said.
They found good copies in the archives of CBS news and some recordings called kinescopes found in film vaults at Johnson Space Center.
Lowry, best known for restoring old Hollywood films, has been digitizing these along with some other bits and pieces to make a new rendering of the original landing."
